Clinton's not evil, just horny. LOL...

And Bush is business savvy.

[jwyblejr]

Why have a new look for Thanos? What was wrong with the one in Avengers?

[Drzsmith]

lol thats right.

Bush wasn't savvy in anything. Well, maybe coloring books.

That's why all the Hulk movies blow.

then how would you do a big green monster guy so it doesn't look like Lou in body paint? The Ang Lee movie stunk it up and probably muddied the waters for Edward Norton version even tho it outsold the Lee one. I really like the Avengers take on him and Mark Ruffalo did a great job stepping into the Banner/Hulk role.

^i agree. really enjoyed hulk in Avengers and Ruffalo's portrayal. I'd like to see another solo film, maybe directed by Whedon some day. I really liked the Jarella storyline. The hulk story from a few years back when he was stranded on a gladiatorial planet was basically an update of that story. Wouldn't mind seeing either adapted.

But what I'd really like to see is a Hulk vs. The Fantastic Four flick. I'd love a good ol' Hulk-Thing fight. It'll never happen, but it's what I'd love to see.

The Avengers Hulk looked like a Ruffalo/Banner hulked out, but also looked like the classic Kirbyesque Hulk come to (almost) life. I think it worked very well, where as the Ang Lee blubbery version did not. Norton's Hulk worked within the film, but his design was too...pretty boy. He had a handsome face on huge roided, veiny body. The Avengers got it just right.

They aren't doing a new look. The concept art above was for Thanos in the Avengers. Granted, we only saw a few seconds of it over his shoulder.

A mash up of the Jarella story with Planet Hulk would go over well with the Hulk tossed in a space setting.

Perfect example why Hulk movies suck as stand alone flicks...the character works better in small doses, like in the Avengers.

Perhaps Thanos will work, the CGI version will be a guest supporting character, so it's cool.

Same applies to the CGI Silver Surfer...it was BY FAR...the best thing about those lame FF movies...but I don't think that Surfer would work in a stand alone SS movie...I'd rather see an actual person colored silver.

Agreed.

I guess I'm being a purist...perhaps the Avengers version of the Hulk could work in a stand alone movie...it was a superior CGI work than the previous Hulk flicks.

I hear the new Thing in the upcoming FF film is going to be CGI...I'll compare it to the costumed one of the previous movies, that one looked really good, although he was kinda on the smallish side.

Is Josh Brolin's mom Bailey from WKRP ?

Apparently, people like voting for incompetent, amateurish war-mongering types. We're on a streak.

And Thanos will look fine and Brolin's going to nail it.

No, but she was his former step-mother. James Brolin and Jan Smithers had a daughter together.

Man, she was fine!!!!

Man, she was fine!!!!

Tell me about it
